Get Rowena Cory Daniells' King Rolen's Kin trilogy as DRM-free ebook for just £3 each!

to celebrate the forthcoming release of the first in Rowena Cory Daniells' brand new trilogy, The Outcast Chronicles, we're giving readers the chance to experience her first best-selling series for Solaris at a fraction of the price! 

The King Rolen's Kin trilogy was a hit when it was released in 2010, with the three books being published over three months - something we're doing again with The Outcast Chronicles, beginning with the gorgeous looking Besieged in July.

The King's Bastard, The Uncrowned King, and The Usurper are now available for just £3 EACH as DRM-free ebooks from the Rebellion store!

Den of Geek gave The King's Bastard four out of five and said it was "exciting, daring and silly in all the right proportions", while SFX said it delivered the "page-turning, plot-twisting, breakneck adventure" that got them reading fantasy in the first place!

And don't forget that an exclusive ebook novella set in the world of King Rolen's Kin, The King's Man, will be coming soon!

Sony Reader: King Rolen's Kin Bundle

The Sony Reader Store are now selling the King Rolen's Kin fantasy trilogy in bundle form.

With this best-selling trilogy Rowena Cory Daniells carved a big space for herself in modern Fantasy. The story of a winter-bound kingdom split asunder by intrigue and magic, its princes set against each other and rival powers circling like vultures, this epic fantasy is held together by its vivid characters. Byren, the King's second son must challenge his elder brother for the throne, Fyn the disinherited child with magic in his blood must become a leader, and Pyro the only princess and a secret magic-worker, is the pivot around which the world may turn for good or ill.

The Comp of Kings!

Hi all,

Well, we're in a charitable mood. Or else there's something weird in the water here. Either way, we're proud to announce our latest competition, the Comp of Kings.

In honour of the releases of Paul Kearney's The Monarchies of God omnibuses (Hawkwood and the Kings, out now, and Century of the Soldier, due out next month) and Rowena Cory Daniells' The Chronicles of King Rolen's Kin trilogy (The King's Bastard and The Uncrowned King, out now, and The Usurper, due out next month), we're holding an all-kings-themed competition.

(by way of illustration, here are King Tutankhamen, The Lich King, Alison King, Stephen King, The Burger King, Martin Luther King, Jr., King Henry VIII, a King Charles Spaniel, King, and the King:)

"Very nice," I hear you cry, appreciatively, "But what exactly is this competition, David? What do we stand to win?"

I'm glad you asked. The two winners will each win a complete set of one of our current monarch-related series; one will receive both The Monarchies of God omnibi (here are those gorgeous Pye Parr/Andrew Evans covers again for you):

...and the other will win all three The Chronicles of King Rolen's Kin books, complete with book-plates signed by Rowena herself! (here are those kick-ass Clint Langley covers again):

"All very well, David," you persist, "But what do I have to do?"

Nothing simpler. Just jump on here, or on our Twitter at @SolarisBooks, and tell us who your favourite fictional king is and why. We'll probably weigh in with our own favourites, purely for the sake of the debate, although, naturally, we're excluded from the competition.

We'll leave the competition open for a couple of days; probably decide on a winner next Monday or something.

Commence!

David
